The flavor and the texture are so much better than those bitter dark chocolate bars.
Are saltine crackers your favorite potato chips?
His favorite movie is “books”!
Yeah I know white chocolate isn’t technically chocolate but it scratches the same itch for me.
I’d honestly go a different direction with the burn like white chocolate is to chocolate what sweet potato chips are to potato chips.
If we were to figure out where saltine crackers relate to potato chips in reference to chocolate or general sweets I’d say if potato chips are milk chocolate Hershey’s then saltine crackers are toffee.
Sweet potato chips are good though…
I hate sweet potatoes though
Out of curiosity, how do you feel about carrots (cooked and uncooked separately), and melons like honeydew and cantaloupe?
Asking because I dislike all of those (other than raw carrots) and wonder if it’s because they are all very high in vitamin A. I once overloaded from a single (extra strong) vitamin A supplement and wonder if I have some gene that increases my vitamin A intake or something.
Well, can’t argue with that lol. I wonder which opinion on sweet potatoes is the unpopular one.
White chocolate shouldn’t even be called chocolate.
I so agree. Its nice with strawberries. sorta like the way powdered sugar is.

Going off of the comments already, I would say that this is a truly unpopular opinion. Well done, OP!
I can’t tell the pretentious assholes apart from the people jokily pretending to be pretentious assholes. Great stuff.
White chocolate literally just tastes like sugar and fat. And “sour”??? What dark chocolate are you eating? This one actually pissed me off fr. Truly unpopular opinion.
My guess is they’re American and damaged by Hershey’s puke
As an American pushing 40, I will tell you, in my whole life, I have rarely ever seen someone just eating a Hershey bar. And I mean very rarely, like twice in my life. They are usually used in some other way like S’mores.
When someone wants just chocolate they grab something better like Ghirardelli or something.
Maybe they meant bitter.
I did a chocolate tour ones. They explained that beans from certain places do have a more sour taste and some bars have it. Its been a while so I don’t even remember which beans it was but it is a real thing.
As a Belgian I consider myself a bit of an ambassador on chocolate and after discussing this with all my fellow countrymen we came to the unanimous conclusion that you are wrong. Please apologize and remove this post.
I asked the Netherlanders what they thought of your comment, and I couldn’t understand a fucking word they said, but they seemed angry.
Are you sure they weren’t American? We’re always getting angry at things we don’t understand.
You have the palate of a child
True. In fact all chocolate is for children. Real adults appreciate the complex flavors and harsh bitterness of dirt which reminds them of their bitter and complex adult selves.
Enjoy your dino chicken nuggets
He probably puts ketchup on hotdogs.
Upvote because I whole heartedly disagree with you.
Yes. This is what unpopular opinion should be about.
TIL, some people think solidifed mix of powdered milk & sugar is chocolate.
Thank you for satisfying yourself with that and leaving chocolate for the rest of us.
Are you a serial killer or just an absolute freak in other ways? White chocolate tastes like someone mixed jizz and chalk dust into some bland milk chocolate.
Maybe because it’s not chocolate and we should stop calling it this.
Depends! If you consider chocolate to be food derived from the cocoa bean, then white chocolate is chocolate because it’s made of cocoa butter without the solids!
The powdery stuff you call cocoa is what’s left over once you get rid of the cocoa butter. So if you feel that cocoa solids are required for something to be classified as chocolate… Then no, it’s not chocolate.
I guess it’s the same as asking if vegetable oil is a vegetable.
Now let´s also consider the fact that cocoa butter is free of chocolate flavor because all the chocolate flavor remains in the cocoa powder after the separation.
Hence white chocolate
Chocolate is cocoa and cocoa butter by definition

It scratches the same itch for me ¯\(ツ)/¯
Comparing white chocolate to dark chocolate makes as much sense as comparing macarons to macaroni :P
Other than that, enjoy white chocolate moderately, preferably with friends, and enjoy your weekend, kind human being :)

I’m not from the US
In think that’s the point. Most people on here soon to be American and so are basing their opinion on American chocolate (which is disgusting awful regardless of type)
I also think white is better than dark chocolate, but what kind of dark chocolate you’re eating that’s sour? Dark chocolate is supposed to be bitter.
American chocolates (like Hershey’s) tend to taste more sour because they have more sugar and less cacao. The milk also tends to have a more butyric acid taste for some reason. Perhaps the difference is how the milk is treated, but those are trade secrets.

US chocolate is really bad
I was surprised the first time I bought a Hershey’s bar and it tasted a bit like vomit.
Same, my brother returned from the US and I was excited to try Hershey’s and was horrified to find it tasted like puke. The next one did too.
They all sat on the table for weeks before they got thrown away which is unheard of in our house with sweets.
Cadbury isn’t the best in the world or anything but not tasting like puke is like, up there in the list of things that make chocolate good.
butyric acid is more prevalent in US chocolate for some accident of history.
So, to non-Americans, American chocolate takes like vomit.
IIRC, this “accident” is simply because chocolate producers figured out it’s cheaper to make the milk slightly taste like vomit (something the Americans apparently didn’t mind too much) than cooling it properly. I think nowadays that wouldn’t really fly but back then cheaper chocolate was maybe so desirable that consumers didn’t mind the weird taste.
That’s kind of fucked up. Especially since chocolate isn’t an essential food.
The process for making Hershey’s chocolate also produces butyric acid, which is the chemical that gives vomit its smell.
Wait, is dark chocolate actually sour to you? Dark chocolate is definitely not sour for me. Bitter maybe, but absolutely not sour.

if they are American then dark chocolate can very well taste sour, look into what Hershey did, literally use soured milk to make chocolate…
In the US, we’ve gotten some really good chocolate over the last couple of decades and I’ve mostly avoided Hersheys over that time. We especially have some excellent dark chocolates. Your “bad chocolate” stereotype was all too true and may still be on average, but things are changing.
I’ve never tasted good white chocolate though
Completely disagree, though I don’t like dark chocolate all that much either. Upvoted.
Milk chocolate is where it’s at for me.
Dark chocolate is the only kind I really like anymore.
